The Bible paints a powerful picture of light and darkness, and at the heart of it is Jesus’ mission to bring salvation and hope. This message reminds us how important faith is and challenges preachers to share the Gospel with boldness—while staying grounded in humility and compassion. It also encourages personal reflection, accountability, and a willingness to repent as we walk toward God’s truth.
In this post, we’re taking a closer look at the struggle between faith and the devil’s temptations—and how we can rely on God’s strength when we’re feeling weak. We’ll talk about why obedience to Christ matters, the impact of sin, and the importance of repentance. Most of all, it’s a call to keep fighting for your faith, surrender to God’s will, and discover the victory that’s already ours in Christ.
Many leave Christianity due to challenges, seeking alternative lifestyles instead of embracing transformation through faith. God has a purpose for everyone, encouraging daily self-denial and reliance on His strength. Rebuilding faith involves prayer, scripture reading, joining supportive ministries, and allowing struggles to deepen one’s relationship with God rather than define it.
Every battle, big or small, holds value and significance, even if it seems less important compared to others’ struggles. Individual experiences of hardship vary in impact, and everyone’s battles are legitimate. Jesus’ compassion for both a dying girl and a suffering woman exemplifies the importance of recognizing each other’s struggles and resilience.

Life presents three states: in a storm, coming out, or about to enter. Trust in God’s promises, for He can change outcomes. Let His peace rule, as our anchor holds in life’s storms.
Matthew 5:16 (KJV) – “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.” WE ARE CALLED TO BE THE LIGHT Light is the natural agent that stimulates sight and makes things visible. As believers, we are the ones who can shine the […]
There are times when things are handed to us and other times when we have to go after whatever we desire. Sometimes, the door is easily opened, and other times, not so much. Not everyone is born with a golden spoon, a business to inherit, or a trust fund. Most people are building from the […]
It’s a new year with a roller coaster of emotions. Feelings of joy, yet uncertain about what will come in the year. I can tell you that I have already had my fair share of challenges so far. I have written down various goals and aspirations that I would like to achieve, but I do […]
Yesterday, I had the awesome privilege of being on a live broadcast with my friend and brother, Pastor Isaac Carpenter. We discussed my latest book, “A Charge To Keep,” in hopes of inspiring other authors and individuals to use the gifts God has given them to change the world around them. It was an encouraging […]
